Hi Csikos,

there is a workaround for that:

    \definefontsize[n]
    \setupbodyfontenvironment[default][n=1]

And then use \tfn.

BTW, font (and language) commands are switches, so they don’t require
text enclosed in parentheses (such as \emph{} in LaTeX). I would
discourage the use of \tfn, but you’re on your own.

x and xx are different font sizes, not x repeated (it could have been
named y or w instead). Here you have the difference:

    \starttext
    default, {\tfx smaller (x) {\tfx not smaller (x again)}}

    default, {\tfx smaller (x) {\tfxx smaller (xx now)}}
    \stoptext

BTW, default body font size is 12pt. I realized when I added and
commented the following command in the preamble:

    \setupbodyfont[12pt]

Just in case it helps,

Pablo
